Desktop-Live ships /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml in addition to /usr/lib/netplan/00-network-manager-all.yaml

[Lukas Märdian]

The /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml, generated by livecd-rootfs, shouldn't exist any more IIUC.
That functionality was moved into src:ubuntu-settings and shipped as /usr/lib/netplan/00-network-manager-all.yaml

This is according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/23.10.1

The duplicated "renderer: NetworkManager" doesn't cause any harm in the live-session, AFAICT.

The /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml file is carried over into the installed system (target).

After "apt install --reinstall ubuntu-settings" the file gets deleted.

Ah, so the code in ubuntu-settings postinst is taking care of deleting the file on existing systems (i.e. upgraders) but that doesn't matter for the fresh image where livecd-rootfs is presumably injecting the file after the package is installed as part of the image build.

I ... thought I had a branch dealing with that in livecd-rootfs, but I can't find it now. Will prep another merge.

And which community flavors ship the ubuntu-settings package?

I don't think this is superseded by the other file.

[Lukas Märdian (slyon)]

Arguably, the "/usr/lib/netplan/00-network-manager-all.yaml" should be shipped by the network-manager package, instead of ubuntu-settings...

The community flavors using Calamares, might be covered by this PR: https://github.com/calamares/calamares/pull/2284
